Um, you know.The north korean bro is threatening the world with their not so awsome nucleur missile. The U.S government is trying to help South Koreans with millitary support.No war yet, but just show off. Do you guys think the U.S army should help South Korea?I'm definitely Yes. You see, the North korean army is going to shoot the missile on either the white house, or Seoul province of south korea. And Seoul is where I live.I don't want to die!

So why is it, again, that N Koreans are forbidden by the world to have their own satellites? The UN doesn't deplore when we launch them...

Well, obviously, their satellites quickly become orbiting pieces of space trash. We don't want other satellites crashing into ours. In addition, we require our satellites to have de-orbiting capability so that once their power supply is depleted, they can burn up in the atmosphere.

In other words, even if they don't make an orbital nuclear strike platform successfully, they could still kamikaze one of our satellites by accident.

So if the N Koreans had an orbiting satellite system, we would refrain from launching any for ourselves to respect them? I don't even respect the concept of land-ownership, so space-ownership only gets even more dubious to me.

No, but we'd probably ask them nicely to give their satellites de-orbiting capability and let us monitor the position of their satellites together with our own so that we don't add to the space trash problem.
